Assuming the whitespace isn't relevant, and is just a delimiter:
>>> s = '123B new Project'
>>> s.split(None, 1)
['123B', 'new Project']
The first argument to split() is the delimiter (or if None, it defaults
to whitespace), and the second argument is 'maxsplit' - the amount of
splits to make. It's explained well in the documentation[1].
